Walking, tying your shoes, riding a bike, brushing your teeth, speaking your language… are all second nature. So here’s my question… what is First Nature? When I first considered it I had an…

The problem with that premise is, if those are first nature, once something like tying your shoes becomes as natural as those, wouldn’t we say it’s become “first nature,” not “second nature?” It doesn’t fit.

Some say First Nature is our primal/predatory/survival instinct. Well, those are definitely fundamental, but they’re not specific to a habit or activity. They are instead, general mindsets, internal directives.

To call those “first nature,” and tying your shoes “second nature” is like saying first fruit is an apple and second fruit is a hot dog. Again, it doesn’t work.

So, here is my premise, you tell me if I’m right.

If second nature means you can do it without thinking about it, first nature means… you have to think about it.

Or more specifically…

Our First Nature is utter inability, fervid desire, and repeated failing action… until we succeed.

First Nature is to be incapable, to want, to try, and to fail over and over again until we succeed.

Have you ever watched a baby learn to walk? That is First Nature.

Babies see others walk. They want to walk. They try versions of walking – rolling, crawling, pulling themselves up, holding on to a couch for balance – they fall A LOT, they look funny and are usually both laughed at and encouraged, and ultimately… most babies walk.

Do you think there’s a secret formula emerging here?

First Nature is the essence of and formula for all success…

We embrace our First Nature – do what is awkward and unfamiliar – until it becomes Second Nature.

Repeat.

To grow, to progress, indeed to continue living, we must regularly embrace our first nature.

It is even more difficult but nonetheless imperative that companies and organizations continually embrace their First Nature.

In a previous writing I referred to this general idea as “Going Into The New,” trying things, a growth path.

So, what’s the difference?

The difference is that “going into the new,” is a great practice; “Embracing” our First Nature underscores the fact that this practice/process – inability, desire, and failing action until we succeed – is who we are!

It’s how we come into the world.

This is not just one of the options… it is our only option for life, growth and success.

So, how often are you embracing your First Nature?

When is the last time you asked a question you don’t already know the answer to?

When is the last time you risked, put yourself into a situation where you don’t know how, there are people watching, and you gave it a shot anyway?

How often do you try a few times… and give up?

When we fail to act because we’re afraid we’ll fail and/or look silly, we deny our very essence, our First Nature.

Next week I will explore this more deeply, particularly what keeps us fromembracing our First Nature.

Until then, please share this on your social media.

As a high school wrestler, seeded sixth in the district (out of six, aka: last), my father saw that I was worried about starting the tournament against the number one seed, a brute of a wrestler.

So Dad gave me a book called Psycho Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz.

It’s a about the power of the mind, focus, the power of belief to bring things into being (heady reading for an 11th grader).

I devoured this book!

I now realize this was the beginning of my lifelong quest for wisdom and insight and ultimately finding/creating ways to program our brains for the greatest good… my career!

I got to where I believed 99% that I could win.

And that’s exactly what happened… down 3-2 in the final seconds I was executing a reversal which would have put me ahead, but just barely behind the buzzer.

Like a high school version of the first “Rocky,” I lost, but I went the distance and beat up on the champ.

We tend to achieve what we believe.

Most importantly, I realized how simply changing the way I think drastically improved my performance.

That experience, combined with everything I have learned since, brings me to this conclusion:

Success in anything – careers, relationships, parenting, health, etc – requires that we continually transform the way we think.

For most of us thoughts just happen, randomly, or based on our environment and experience.

We rarely even consider, let alone become intentional about what we’re thinking.

And some of us have the challenge of “stinkin’ thinkin’,” all-consuming doubts and negative thoughts.

So, how do you and I transform our thoughts?

The answer is…

Questions.

The most basic cognitive human brain function is to ask questions, and our brains do it thousands of times a day, never verbalized.

Those questions are the inner dialogue going on inside all of us, which by the way does nothing less than define the quality of your life and all of your results.”

Let me say that again:

Your questions and inner dialogue define the quality of your life and all of your results!”

Does your brain ask questions like, “What if I could do that thing I’ve always dreamed of, how would I?” “What if we had to do this better, how could we?”

Or…

“Why am I so lazy?” “How come nothing works out for me?” “How can I get out of work today?”

The fact is you have power over your thoughts and it’s time to take control.

If I had to say that any one thing contributed most to my success it would be intentionally changing the way I think.

It’s a hard journey at first, but from what I’ve just shared you can program your brain for success:

Right now: Make a list of positive questions and turn them into mantras that you read in the morning, repeat to yourself through the day, read again at night.

You’re developing the thinking habit.

Also, if you are serious about improvement, to save you the years of the pain, trial and error that I spent, allow me to offer a powerful new resource.

It’s described below in the PS.

Either way, it’s time for you to transform and program your thoughts for success through the intentional use of positive questions.

Live truly, truly live,

Rayburn

https://mikerayburn.com/2018/09/03/five-unexpected-reasons-youll-never-become-world-class-and-how-to-change-them/#respondMon, 03 Sep 2018 01:55:24 +0000https://mikerayburn.com/?p=4584...there are a number unexpected personal traits that may be keeping you from achieving the success you would otherwise attain.

When it comes to pursuing world class ability, or just your personal best at your art, skill, sport or business, you know it takes the usual suspects… talent, work ethic, practice, perseverance, overcoming adversity, taking risks.

What you may not realize is that there are a number personal traits that may be keeping you from achieving the success you would otherwise attain.

Are the following traits holding YOU back?

The reasons people fall short are manifold. Here are five I believe many people do without even realizing they do them.

Inability to complete things. Successful people finish! And, 98% done is not done… DONE is done. How many people have novels they’ve begun and are collecting dust? Song ideas they’ve jotted down but never written? Businesses they talk about, play around with, even invest in… but never launch? Finish already.

“The measure of your success in life is the measure of your ability to complete things.”

Excuses and blaming. Anyone who is successful takes full responsibility for every outcome in her life. Period. And even when you’ve been successful you must remain vigilant for little ways you may still be blaming. I’ll confess one right here: I tend to blame technology when something on my computer “just changes.” That’s on me, not technology.

Doing something you have a talent for but don’t love; or something you love, but don’t have a talent for. The alignment of these two factors is critical for longterm success. For instance, I am good at math. But I hate math, so I’d be miserable. On the other hand, I love endurance sports… cycling, running. I’m also partially flat-footed. So, I can enjoy cycling as a healthy hobby, but I’m not headed for the Tour de France. When I combine the things I love and have a knack for, the planets align. What is it you LOVE and have a talent for?

Being uncomfortable with repetition. Repetition is the mother of skill. Kobe Bryant would not leave the gym until he had 800 “makes” (shot’s made)…every day! Good sales people go over and over product details, rehearse presentations. On guitar I play through scales and patterns over and over for hours. James Clear said it simply, “…top performers in any craft figure out a way to fall in love with boredom, put in their reps, and do the work.”

Being lazy by being busy. One big way people avoid getting in the game is by being too busy to get in the game. Always preparing, never launching. This includes working on tasks that look like they matter, but don’t, constantly refining the details when there’s no business. For instance, if you want to be a speaker write your speech and start booking it. Don’t worry about your social media, writing your book first, getting your business cards printed. That’ll come. Just freakin’ do it.

Be honest… are any of these holding you back?

The first and biggest step in ridding yourself of these plagues is admitting you have them.

How you get rid of them permanently is one program in my VIP – Virtuoso In Progress – Community membership site. More about that soon.

Please share this!

Back when I played more than 1400 bar gigs for $60-90/night, and later more than 1800 college shows, I refused to relegate myself to being background music.

Night after night, honing my skills, I made it a challenge to pull the audience into a larger, connected, concert experience.

One summer night at the Massanutten Resort in Virginia where I played through college, a kindly man named Mike Wulf, Director of all Recreation Services for the US Atlantic Fleet, happened in to my show, saw the audience reaction, and for the next 5-6 years I performed on Navy ships and bases up and down the east coast.

At that time I had a “friend” who, in a jealous way would say, “You’re just lucky.”

My response (and part of a previous Virtuoso Tip) was,

“Yeah, you’re right, I am lucky; but I give luck one hell of a chance to happen.”

When you go all out, time after time, every time, opportunity will find you. And when you pursue excellence the rewards get better and better.

There are two principles at play here.

First…

The more chances you give opportunity to find you, the more opportunity will find you.

You might say, “Well, duh,” but I hear people every day complain about their circumstances, blame others for their woes, yet spend their lives getting ready but never launching; talking about it but never risking.

To them I say, “Get in the game, show up every day, work, risk, chase excellence, make some mistakes, put it out there.

Like it or not that is the formula.

Second…

Excellence is not linear, it’s exponential.

When you show up every day always improving, always seeking excellence – always striving for “Virtuoso” – your rewards over time will be exponentially greater than your effort.

Pursuing excellence it’s like someone agreeing to pay you a penny a day and just double it every day for a month.

By the end of week one you’ll have… $1.27.

Ooh, exciting.

Week two… $163.84.

Yippee. (But hold on…)

Week three… $20,971.51.

Not bad for three weeks, right? (It gets better…)

Week four… $2,684,354.55.

And hopefully for you it’s a 31-day month because on Day 31 you will have…

$21,474,836.48

This is exactly why I implore my audiences to make the choice to Become A Virtuoso, to make excellence your daily pursuit.

This is also why I’m creating my new VIP (Virtuoso In Progress) Community Membership site, for people who’ve made this life decision and want the tools to act on it.(Projected launch in September).

The bottom line is, when you make and act on the choice to become a Virtuoso, good things happen, they just do.

Like, write-one-song-in-a-year writer’s block. This was bad considering my career relies completely on creating regularly. There was a reason I was a “struggling” songwriter in Nashville. Writer’s block (and all procrastination) ultimately comes down to one word: FEAR… usually of failure, success, or rejection. I developed…

In Nashville I worked with some of the great songwriters of our time, ones who wrote huge hits like, “I Hope You Dance,” “Sarah Smile,” “She’s Gone,” “Tulsa Time,” “Long Black Veil,” and on and on… and every one of them lived by this motto:

Don’t try to write a hit, just write a song.

For you maybe that means… make the call.

Or take the risk.

Or make the move.

Or just…

Forgive me for this one but… wait for it… wait for it…

Just do it.

(Yeah, I said it)

Please pass this along!

* Grow your vocabulary with attention to phraseology, nomenclature, vernacular, lexis, use of metaphor, simile and symbolism. (The dictionary and thesaurus on my computer get a workout, and yours should, too).

* Limit adjectives and adverbs when you want to create impact. Rehearse important pitches, interviews, and requests to concentrate the power of your word choices.

Example: Short bio’s are necessary in a performance career. If a bio says “Shawna is an astounding, amazing, melodic, world-class, traditional vocalist… you’re tired of reading before the sentence is done.

Qualifying her singing is relevant, overkill is NOT! So, which one of those adjectives implies all the rest? I say “world-class.”

That same sentence could read: “Shawna is a world-class vocalist…” and we get it.

In other words… Get to the point!

Start applying this today for it to take hold and have maximum benefit.

https://mikerayburn.com/2018/01/07/dont-follow-heart-lead-it/#commentsSun, 07 Jan 2018 05:33:20 +0000https://mikerayburn.com/?p=4410Years ago after my presentation for the National Speakers Association about how to get bookings, a very sweet woman, an aspiring speaker, shared that she was having problems getting bookings. I asked what she spoke about and she said (I can’t make this up): “The history of aprons.” Yep, the history of aprons. I asked,…

Your heart is where God connects with you and your heart’s condition is what most concerns God.

So, Rayburn, what are you saying?

I’m saying, don’t follow your heart… lead it.

How???

Well, you also have a brain.

The brain is where we learn and apply wisdom, discernment and judgement.

It is no accident that you have both.

A heart untempered by wisdom is like a fire set in a dry wood… with high winds.

Living purely by heart and passion without applying wisdom and discernment creates a lonely, broken, disappointed life.

Conversely, living purely by thought and reason, denying your heart and passion creates a cold, autocratic, barren life.

Are you in one or the other of these categories? Do you tend toward one or the other?

Here’s the deal…When someone says, “Follow your heart,” they usually mean do the thing you feel passion for, what you’ve always dreamed of, and I believe in that.

Partially.

You must also apply judgement.

I have had people come to me after presentations and literally blame me for advocating the importance of passion and bold goals, saying something like, “Yeah, I heard what you said but let me tell you what happened… I had a dream, I followed my passion, I had faith, I quit my job, I started my own business, I worked hard, and it still failed… I lost everything!”

Flash News Bulletin #2:Your having a dream does not suspend the laws of business, fidelity, and supply and demand.

It’s still the same old world out there.

The key, the answer, your best strategy is to practice what I call “Practical Passion.”

Practical Passion is a dream with a plan. It’s the willingness to take your passion seriously. It’s passion with a longterm view.

https://mikerayburn.com/2017/12/09/discover-others-missing-mindset/#respondSat, 09 Dec 2017 19:12:43 +0000https://mikerayburn.com/?p=4402Here's how to discover what others are missing, how to revolutionize with what's right in fron of you. Every major invention, victory or achievement in human history began in some way or another with a bold, “What IF?” question.

Dubin took simple, decent quality razors out of the chained, electric vault at the drug store, and offered to mail them to you once a month for a few dollars.

In 2011 Dollar Shave Club was born.

In 2017 he sold DSC to Unilever for, wait for it…

One Billion Dollars.

Michael Dubin didn’t invent anything.

He didn’t offer some crazy, breakthrough technology.

He saw a few simple problems…
*razors are way too expensive;
*they’re locked up and literally chained at the store, which makes the buying process demeaning and the buyer feel like a criminal;
*guys are usually not big shoppers; when they need to shave they’d rather use an old blade than go to the store.

Dubin thought, “What if… we sell good razors for a fair, low price and mail them to you?”

He then took action… and it made him a billionaire.

The entire point of my “What IF? Keynote Experience” is this:

Those same opportunities are sitting in front of you right now!

I want you to discover them.
I want you to see what others miss.
I want you to create abundance.

How? Everything begins with your mindset.

As I have said countless times…

Every major invention, victory or achievement in human history began in some way or another with a bold, “What IF?” question.

You need the “What IF? Mindset.”

So, if you’re with a major company who’s been at least somewhat dominant in your industry, realize that your downfall will be coasting, assuming things will always be this way.

Remember what I always say about coasting… it only happens downhill.

Your real competitor will be that industrious little startup who, from the outside has seen what you don’t about your own business.

Your solution… is to create, right now, a culture of “What IF…?” A culture of innovation, risk-taking and regular, intentional reinvention;

…you need the “What IF? Mindset.”

And if you’re the new guy/girl who notices something about a product or process that others don’t, this is your opportunity, and the solution is the same…

…you need the “What IF? Mindset.”

That idea you’ve always had, that glitch in the market you see… Jump on it!

One quick way to do that is to ask the following questions:
-What is missing from the marketplace?
-What bothers you about a product or service?
-What is everyone else not seeing?
-What industry, business or product hasn’t been updated in years?
-What problems do you have or see and how would you solve them?
-What if you did? And… what if it worked?

And… Why Not YOU?

https://mikerayburn.com/2017/09/26/4341-2/#respondTue, 26 Sep 2017 21:42:29 +0000https://mikerayburn.com/?p=4341Studying what successful people do, how they do it, and copying them is a great formula for success. I am in the middle of a lot of reinvention so, while I may not be perfect, I've done it a lot... so perhaps you could observe conceptually what I'm doing and try the same for your career.

One of the first messages I learned as I began to embrace personal development is: Success leaves clues.

So follow them.

Watch and study people who are successful, do what they do, and you’re likely to get similar results.

In particular, find people who are successful in an area at least similar to what you want to create or achieve.

I don’t mean copy them, and certainly don’t steal from anyone.

But emulating or imitating is integral to art and business.

And here’s the cool thing about imitating those you respect:

You can’t do it.

Though you’ll try you’ll fall short, wonderfully short.

But what you come up with as you try will in time become your own style.

Also, I learn from any kind of success so I freely borrow concepts (not specifics) from many different areas.

That said, here’s an idea: Copyme.

If my last two tips about the necessity to constantly reinvent, both as organizations and as individuals, resonated with you and you’re wondering how to reinvent for yourself or your organization, why not watch me; I’m immersed in it right now.

I don’t say that out of pride or ego, I just know a lot about reinventing myself professionally as I’ve it done more than a dozen times.

So each week I’ll share what I’m doing to reinvent.

Each sweeping move will also be part of a much larger change which won’t be evident for a few months.

I invite you to watch me and learn what you can, even if what you learn is to not do what I just did (which is a valid lesson, by the way).

I may not do it right, well, or in the same way you would.

However, I will do it, and that boldly.

Rayburn Reinvention #1…

CMI Speaker Management. Six weeks ago I amicably switched from my agent of 5 1/2 years and signed with CMI Speaker Management. CMI is amazing, the gold standard, and this is the necessary foundation of changes to come.

Rayburn Reinvention #2…

Guitar Giveaway. Now, in every keynote I surprise an attendee who’s willing to speak up and share an a new idea he or she has come up with during my program, with a brand new guitar! Seriously.

Rayburn Reinvention #3… ***

What NOW? …YourWhat If Action of the Week (or What IF Action Videos). I have created and launched a resource for companies to sustain the excitement from their conferences and really implement my keynote message and supercharge their results. (See below)
